New member/New Shake

[alb770]

Hey everyone-
My name is Ana I'm 35 years old and have two kids. I had tried everything before Atkins and just wouldn't lose weight. I started in May when my son was six weeks old and now 5 and 1/2 months later I am 40 pounds lighter. I feel like a new person. The only thing I'm not thrilled about are the new shakes. I used live off of them and I cannot stand the taste of the new ones. Does anyone know of any other shake on the market that tastes like the old canned Atkins ones.
Thanks
Ana

Hi Ana - congrats on your progress. I'm just on Day 2 of Induction - so I've got a long way to go!

Sorry I can't help with the shakes.

Hello and welcome!

No clue on the shakes, never tried the Atkins products.

Happyinlife recently offered protein shake recipes:


I use a scoop of Cookies n Cream pure protein powder (sold in publix) 2 carbs per scoop. I understand that Designer protein powder is very good too.

I also use the vanilla protein powder flavor and add 4 strawberries or 1/4 cup of blueberries with about 1/4 cup of cream, tsp splenda, 3 ice cubs and about 1/4 to 1/3 cup water. You will want to play around with it to
your preference.

I know what you mean about the shakes. Something about the new packaging gives it a nasty, metallic, kinda oily taste.
Thankfully Ingles still sells the cans where I live. For now, anyway.
I haven't tried any other shakes. If you try making your own, let us know how it turns out!
